< Mark 10 >

1 AND arising, he went from thence into the coasts of Judea, through the country on the other side of the Jordan; and again the multitudes came together unto him; and as his custom was, he again taught them.
And having risen thence, he doth come to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again do multitudes come together unto him, and, as he had been accustomed, again he was teaching them.
2 And the Pharisees coming to him, put a question to him, Is it lawful for a husband to put away his wife? tempting him.
And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned him, if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting him,
3 He answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
and he answering said to them, 'What did Moses command you?'
4 They said, Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce, and to put her away.
and they said, 'Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.'
5 Then Jesus answering said unto them, For the hardness of your hearts he wrote you that ordinance.
And Jesus answering said to them, 'For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female;
but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;
7 and said, For this cause shall a man forsake father and mother, and shall adhere to his wife;
on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,
8 and they two shall be one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.
and they shall be — the two — for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;
9 What therefore God hath yoked together, let no man separate.
what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.'
10 And in the house the disciples again asked him of this matter.
And in the house again his disciples of the same thing questioned him,
11 And he said unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her:
and he saith to them, 'Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, doth commit adultery against her;
12 and if a wife put away her husband, and marrieth another, she committeth adultery.
and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she committeth adultery.'
13 And they brought unto him little children, that he should touch them: but his disciples rebuked those who brought them.
And they were bringing to him children, that he might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
14 But when Jesus saw it, he felt indignation, and said to them, Permit little children to come to me, and hinder them not; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and he said to them, 'Suffer the children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in nowise enter into it.
verily I say to you, whoever may not receive the reign of God, as a child — he may not enter into it;'
16 And he took them in his arms, and laying his hand upon them, gave them his benediction.
and having taken them in his arms, having put [his] hands upon them, he was blessing them.
17 And as he went out to the road, a person ran to him, and kneeling down, asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, 'Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?' (aiōnios g166)
18 Then said Jesus unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, even God.
And Jesus said to him, 'Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good except One — God;
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery; Do not murder; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honour thy father and mother.
the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Thou mayest not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.'
20 Then he replying, said, Master, all these things have I observed from my youth.
And he answering said to him, 'Teacher, all these did I keep from my youth.'
21 Then Jesus looking upon him, loved him, and said to him, In one thing thou art defective: go, sell all that thou hast, and give to the poor; and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up thy cross, and follow me.
And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, 'One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast — sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.'
22 And groaning over this speech, he went away sorrowful: for he had many estates.
And he — gloomy at the word — went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
23 And Jesus looking round, said to his disciples, How difficultly shall they who have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
And Jesus having looked round, saith to his disciples, 'How hardly shall they who have riches enter into the reign of God!'
24 Then his disciples were astonished at these words. But Jesus again addressing them, said unto them, Children, how difficult is it for those who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
And the disciples were astonished at his words, and Jesus again answering saith to them, 'Children, how hard is it to those trusting on the riches to enter into the reign of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
It is easier for a camel through the eye of the needle to enter, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.'
26 And they were exceedingly amazed, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
And they were astonished beyond measure, saying unto themselves, 'And who is able to be saved?'
27 And Jesus looking upon them, said, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
And Jesus, having looked upon them, saith, 'With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.'
28 And Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
And Peter began to say to him, 'Lo, we left all, and we followed thee.'
29 Then Jesus in reply said, Verily I say unto you, there is no man who hath left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake and the Gospel’s,
And Jesus answering said, 'Verily I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my sake, and for the good news',
30 who shall not receive an hundred-fold more now, at this very time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecution, and in the world to come life everlasting. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during; (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But many first, will be last; and the last, first.
and many first shall be last, and the last first.'
32 And they were on the road going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was advancing before them: and they were astonished; and followed him full of fear. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what things were about to befall him:
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the twelve, he began to tell them the things about to happen to him,
33 For, lo! said he, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be betrayed to the chief priests, and to the scribes; and they will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles:
— 'Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations,
34 and they will insult him, and scourge him, and spit upon him, and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
and they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit on him, and kill him, and the third day he shall rise again.'
35 And James and John the sons of Zebedee came to him, saying, Master, we desire that thou shouldst do for us whatsoever we request.
And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, 'Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;'
36 He said unto them, What will ye that I should do for you?
and he said to them, 'What do ye wish me to do for you?'
37 They say unto him, Grant us to sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy glory.
and they said to him, 'Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;'
38 Then Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup which I drink? and be baptised with the baptism with which I am baptised?
and Jesus said to them, 'Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with — to be baptized?'
39 And they said unto him, We are able. Then said Jesus unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup of which I drink; and be baptised with the baptism with which I am baptised:
And they said to him, 'We are able;' and Jesus said to them, 'Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;
40 but to sit on my right-hand, and on my left, is not mine to give; but to those for whom it is prepared.
but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but — to those for whom it hath been prepared.'
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant against James and John.
And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
42 But Jesus called them, and said to them, Ye know that they who appear to rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them; and their great men exercise dominion over them.
but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, 'Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;
43 But it shall not be so with you: but whosoever will be great among you let him be your servant:
but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,
44 and whosoever will be first, let him be the servant of all.
and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;
45 For the Son of man came not to be waited upon, but to be a servant, and to give his life a ransom for many.
for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'
46 And they came to Jericho. And as he was going out of Jericho with his disciples, and a great multitude, Bartimeus, the blind, the son of Timeus, sat by the road-side begging:
And they come to Jericho, and as he is going forth from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus — Bartimaeus the blind — was sitting beside the way begging,
47 and hearing that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he began to cry out, and say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!
and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, 'The Son of David — Jesus! deal kindly with me;'
48 And many chid him, that he should be silent: but he cried out so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!
and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, 'Son of David, deal kindly with me.'
49 And Jesus stood still, and ordered him to be called: and they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up, arise; he calleth thee.
And Jesus having stood, he commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, 'Take courage, rise, he doth call thee;'
50 Then casting off his cloak, he arose, and came to Jesus.
and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, did come unto Jesus.
51 And Jesus addressing him, said, What dost thou wish that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight!
And answering, Jesus saith to him, 'What wilt thou I may do to thee?' and the blind man said to him, 'Rabboni, that I may see again;'
52 Then said Jesus unto him, Go thy way: thy faith hath saved thee. And immediately he received sight, and followed Jesus in the road.
and Jesus said to him, 'Go, thy faith hath saved thee:' and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
